@Darkenning: Did you mean Haruna?

@ Cygnus: He isn't. Somebody played a joke on him once, and now he's looking for a way to get those books off his hands. He does think Mao would probably like it. And thanks!

@ Sereg: Again, someone played a joke on him once. But thanks!

@ The Curious Fan: ...If you'll excuse me, I have some research to do. And a lot of Canon Welding, that strangely enough involve Zetta.

[up][up] I think he means Haruka, the Mai Hime character mentioned along Haruna. And at this point I assume it's befre the proper series' events start, she still should be too uptight to willingly go along with Arika's plans. waii

Hey, I seem to remember someone either here or on the main thread did a 3D Custom Girl of Chisame.

@NDC: To continue from the main thread, I do see your point. I'm mostly gauging it as a novel series than a comic series, so I'm holding it to different standards.

However, I will argue that it'd still bog down the story. I'm not a comic reader, but I believe the reason the crossovers work is due to allowing separate development of characters in their own series so they can work better when crossing over. As such, which I know you stated you didn't want to do, having different series going at the same time would actually build your world better than what you're doing right now.

But I definitely understand why you don't want to do that...

Though, personally? I'm actually doing that with my personal novel series. [lol]

[up] Yeah, it's kinda a case of Damned if you Do, Damned if you don't. But I've long assumed nothing I ever write will be perfect anyway, and the most important thing when writing a long ongoing story is having fun so it doesn't become a chore and you lose interest, so I'll keep it going the way I have, since splitting it all into different stories would detract my attention from the whole matter. I'd still be writing the same amount of material, but now split between several stories that update even more rarely.

Again, I see your points, but it's something I can't just do if I want to keep my motor running.

Yeah, I understand. Though, from my five years of writing fanfiction, I've often found myself over-plotting myself into exhaustion. Especially when discovering a new series I liked and wanted to somehow squeeze it into my crossovers.

By the way, @SCM: I have no recollection of that.

Unequally, Continuation.

As Kazumi finished telling her story, Ayaka made a brief, half stunned pause before regaining her bearings and laughing it off. "Oh, Asakura-san! That's simply impossible! There's no way such a thing could ever exist, much less in our classroom!"

"I figured you'd say that," Asakura said. "Think whatever you want, but I'm sure I've felt that, and I know it isn't something that can be explained through natural means."

"Everything can be explained through natural, logical means," Ayaka stated.

"Superman-sama?" Kazumi asked.

"Super soldier created by the US government. Everyone knows that alien story is only a fabrication."

"The Batman?"

"Urban legend."

"That guy with the flaming skull head sighted in New York?"

Ayaka glared. "You really don't believe that stuff, do you?"

Kazumi hummed. "Nah, I think that's too much even for me. But still, I don't think you should discard it all so easily."

"Be that as it may be, we'll need to discuss it later," the Class Rep looked at her wristwatch. "It's getting late, and I don't trust Makie-san with the dinner."

Kazumi smirked. "Oh, so you do the cooking, Iincho?"

"What is it so strange about it? I'm not pampered just because I'm rich. Father taught me a Yukihiro woman should be self-sufficient, and while the servants cook for me when I'm home, I'll do it at the dorm. Chizuru-san taught me when we roomed together last year."

"That's something I've always wondered about. Why did you move away from her? You get along just great..." Asakura asked casually as they walked for the door.

Since it was a question with a clear, innocent answer, Ayaka replied honestly. "It was just too crowded, nothing else. Between us and Murakami-san, it was just too much, despite our lack of personal issues with each other. Believe me, it's never wise to have more than a single roommate at any given time. Well, thanks for everything, Asakura-san. We'll remain in contact."

"Have a good day, Iincho," Kazumi nodded, arms crossed. Her smile was half-crooked now, as if she suspected something, Ayaka thought, although that probably was only an impression born out of her own recent paranoia. Ayaka told herself she was justified on feeling that way. After all those recent revelations...

Once alone, she strolled through the mostly empty campus for a while, avoiding a straight route back home. Once she was fairly sure Kazumi was not following her around from any sort of distance, she headed into the main academic building, not really sneaking since it didn't fit her status, honestly, but still discreetly making her way to the 3-A classroom. With the spare key she always kept around in her condition of class president, she opened, then locked behind herself.

She walked through the long lines of empty seats, stopping before the first one of them all. The one that had remained unoccupied for years.

She felt ridiculous, and she was fairly sure she only was wasting her time. And yet, she already was there, so why not to just go along with it?

Ayaka cleared her throat, frowned, and finally asked, "Aisaka-san?"

Silence.

"Aisaka-san, are you here?" Ayaka raised her voice a bit.

Nothing but more silence.

The blonde tried to keep her voice official and serious, not showing the frustrated embarassment she was feeling. "Aisaka-san, if you can hear me, please give me a sign."

Again, nothing.

Ayaka sighed and walked back for the door. "I knew it...!"

Then a soft, hesitating knocking on Seat Number One stopped her on her tracks.

Ayaka turned her head around. The knocking repeated itself, a bit louder now.

"If that's really you, Aisaka-san, please knock twice. Only twice."

Knock. Knock.

Ayaka fully turned back, smiling with actual satisfaction. So the supernatural was not a lie after all? Maybe Siesta had, indeed, been telling her the truth about herself and Negi-sensei.

"Greetings, Aisaka-san," Ayaka said, with a bow. "I don't quite believe we have been formally introduced. My name is Yukihiro Ayaka, and I'm your Class Representative. I am sorry to have spent this long without ever noticing your presence."

Sayo wanted to say it was okay, and she didn't mind, because she understood, but her words couldn't reach out to Ayaka. Frustrated, she tried to pat the living girl on a shoulder, but the touch only made Ayaka back away, startled by a sudden icy feeling on her body.

That made Sayo panic, afraid she'd scared her away, but Ayaka seemed to understand, somehow, much like she could understand Zazie's silences. "It's okay. You wanted to pat my shoulder, didn't you? Knock twice again if I'm right."

Knock. Knock.

Yukihiro rubbed her chin. "We're going to need a better means of communication. This is far too limited." Looking around, she saw a piece of chalk left on Asuna's desk. She picked it up and offered it on the first seat's direction. "Can you write?"

It was an extreme longshot, and Ayaka knew it.

Sayo doubted. Kurosaki-sempai had given her some recent coaching on how to interact with the physical world better, but she was a slow learner, and she still had big problems moving objects around. Still, she made her best attempt to hold the chalk, then lifting it, feeling as if she was carrying a huge building between her hands. Even so, she forced herself to bring it to the chalkboard, applying it against its surface, attempting to remember how it was, to actually write something. It had been so long...

Ayaka made a truly fascinated expression as she saw the chalk levitating, then rubbing itself against the chalkboard, words beginning to appear slowly on the hard surface.

Pleased.

Oh, God.

To.

It was real.

Meet.

It was amazing.

You.

It was magical.

Iincho-sama.

The world was, after all, a magical place.

#11886: Aug 5th 2011 at 4:45:57 PM

[up] A very sweet scene, for both of them.

The following is not canon for the Decadent-verse, but it's amusing.

I Liked You Better When You Were — Wait, That's Been Done

Even in Japan, and even at Mahora, an anatomically correct giant statue cannot go on a rampage and not make the news. Fortunately, the administration was able to cover it up with help from various state agencies, and so the impression most people had was that it had been yet another runaway robot from those wacky mad scientists at the University. (This annoyed Satomi and Asakura for different reasons.)

One result of the chaos was that a fair number of people who boarded at the school were getting frantic phone calls from their families, or even surprise visits. Nodoka herself had received a short phone call from her father. She would probably have been more moved if she hadn't heard a faint note of hope in his tone when he asked her if she wanted to continue attending school at Mahora. (Which meant that he'd have been just as happy if she died, since it would mean he could stop paying for her schooling.)

But she was happy for those of her friends who did get to visit with their family, like Haruna, on whom she was planning to pay a surprise visit in hopes of mending some fences. She found the door open, but still knocked.

Haruna came to the door, smiling broadly. "Oh, this is gonna be good. Hey, Nodoka, there's someone I'd like you to meet!" And she pulled Nodoka into the room. "Miyazaki Nodoka, meet —"

"Saotome Nodoka," the purply-haired woman in the kimono said softly, with a gentle smile. "Thank you for taking such good care of my daughter."

Nodoka stared.

Nodoka smiled. "Daughter, why don't you run down to the store and get us some drinks while I talk about you behind your back with your friend?"

"I love the honesty!" Haruna thrilled as she headed out.

Nodoka stared. "She doesn't see it, does she?" she finally asked.

Nodoka shook her head. "No, I don't think she can. To be fair to her, I think I've changed a lot, these ... well. I'll spare you the number of years."

"How did this happ—"

Again, Nodoka shook her head. "I don't think you should know that either. It will happen, and it has to happen. Just like this meeting. You're going to have a full life— it'll just be mostly spent in a different century than you were expecting."

"I'm not going to get Negi-sensei, am I?" she asked herself faintly.

"I didn't say that," Nodoka answered herself, smiling broadly.

Unequally, Continuation.

Satomi made an incoherent sound as Zazie easily elbowed her across the chin.

As she swung a giant fist around, missing her target again, she began to realize a few things. First, maybe she wasn't as used to physical pain as she had previously believed. Second, if the actual Rainyday-san moved that way, perhaps it would pay hiring her services to register her motion routines and incorporating them into Chachamaru's future battle files. Third, she was definitely too slow to counter Rainyday-san properly.

Even with the speed burst the Pactio gave her, she found all her movements were too late to match the dark skinned girl's. The acrobat already had hit her by the time she had figured out what she was going to do, or even before it. And those small fists impacted with a lot of strenght, even worse than Naba-san's slap. Hakase began hearing an undistinct ringing in her ears, and she shook her head, trying to keep on consciousness in the face of the onslaught. If only she could land a single good solid hit...

"Hakase!" Chisame said while leaping in to join the fray, brandishing her scepter and attempting a repeat of what she had done to the Ayaka unit. As soon as Hasegawa was in Rainyday's range, however, the acrobat kicked her in the face before she could even put her mice in place around her.

"Chisame!" Hakase gasped, rushing ahead to aid her.

Matoi, standing at the sidelines, fumbled angrily. Calling each other's names in battle... the first sure-fire sign of mutual affection in all action movies and TV shows...

Just as easily, Zazie leaped up doing a split kick, hitting each Ministra with a different foot at once. Even Matoi was impressed. She hadn't seen such skill since that boy she dated for a while... Genpou Saji-kun, wasn't it? She wondered how he was doing now...

Still, her awe turned into nail biting fear quickly, as the dark skinned stupid doll kept kicking Chisame-sama and Forehead Harlot around easily, tossing them around like ragdolls before they could even react. "STOP IT!" she cried.

As oblivious as the real Zazie, the puppet just bicycle kicked Chisame into the air, while using her arms to pin Hakase down into the mud. Okay, badass, but Matoi had no appreciation for that right now. Her beloved was yelling in pain, damn it!

"Stop this!" Tsunetsuki turned angrily to the fake Asakura.

The doll smiled vacantly. "Why should I? It's very amusing."

Seething mad, Matoi picked a rock from the ground and tossed it at Zazie's head while she held each Ministra by the collars of their shirts. "LET THEM GO!"

The rock fell down bouncing off her head, but Zazie gave no sign of even noticing the hit. That did it. As the doll prepared to mash both her opponents' heads against each other for the coup de grace, the short haired girl, with a crazy yell perfectly copied from Chiri in Extreme Frustration Mode, tossed herself on her back, throwing her off balance. It was for only a second or so, but it was enough to allow Hakase land a large metal fist on Rainyday's skull, immediately followed by an electric blast of Chisame into the open wound, overloading the head from the inside until it exploded in a shower of sparkles.

The puppet and the girls fell in a heap then, with the humans panting and wheezing heavily. For a moment, no one could say anything, until Chisame looked and Matoi and said, hoarsely, "Thanks. You okay there?"

She only nodded, struggling back to her feet. "Y-Yes. You?"

"Could be much better, but I still can walk, at least," Chisame helped Hakase to stand back up, carefully. Matoi frowned, since she hadn't received the same treatment. "How about you, Hakase?"

The scientist dusted herself off grandly, although it just came out as cutely clumsy. "I have substained no lasting, serious physical damage to any degree."

Chisame smiled. Matoi scowled, although a part of herself felt actually glad Forehead Two-Timer was not hurt too badly. It must have been because otherwise Chisame-sama would be sad.

Hasegawa looked evenly at 'Asakura'. "What kind of woman keeps killer dolls based on her classmates around?"

"The kind of woman you'll never get to be," the redhead sneered.

"Fortunately," Chisame muttered under her breath before asking, "You don't have a copy of me stashed around too, do you?"

'Asakura' scoffed. "What kind of use could I ever have for such an individual as you?"

''— as you?" Evangeline asked into her magical projection ball several rooms apart, sitting cross legged on a couch made of velvety black pillows, with a Chisame maid doll kneeling at her feet, carefully painting her toenails.

A Shizuna-sensei puppet appeared right behind her. "Would you wish for a shoulder massage, Mistress?"

"Not now, Shizuna!" Eva barked, gesturing for her to be quiet.

[up][up] Eh, mostly because I have a different idea for Nodoka's fate that can't be reconciled with this timeline. (If she disappears back in time when she's about seventeen, in order to become Ranma and Haruna's mother, she can't become a legendary adventurer in the magical world.)

That's assuming that she's not pretending to be fooled by the "Ranko" deception. I think I've come across a few Ranma One Half fics where it's revealed that Nodoka either knew it was Ranma all along or eventually deduced it on her own, and was just trying to test him and his father - usually without having any intentions to force her son to uphold the seppuku pledge should he fail the "man among men" part (Genma is a different matter).

My Yue still hasn't done anything note-worthy, so we've no reason to put a counter profile on her, but your descriptions of Yue's harem owning status and badassness are always highly entertaining.

The Zan-styled segment sounds good as well, in any case.

#11898: Aug 6th 2011 at 5:20:30 AM

And now, 2814!Yue's Profile:

From the files of Chao Lingshen, Temporal Renegade:

Full Name: Ayase Yue

Known Aliases: Yue-chi, Forehead Girl, The Philosopher Obscura Regina, Valkyrie Black, Dread Philosopher Yue-berts, 

Alignment: Lawful Good

ECL: Rank A- threat

Religion: Originally Shinto, but due to being on speaking terms with a reduced mortal goddess, a 2/3rds demigod, and an Amazon princess formed from clay and given life by a another goddess, she's decided to become a functional Agnostic. 

Sexuality: though claiming to be heterosexual in general (and Negi-sexual in particular), many have noticed the strange dynamics of Yue's interactions with some girls, notably her roommate, class representative, and the class rep's best friend during her stay in Ariadne. This is vehemently denied, which are completely disbelieved. 

Family: family unknown, though she, like many, wants to have one with Negi Springfield. 

Affiliations: Mahora Academy, the Library Island Explorers Club, Ala Alba, the United Magical Girls (and Boys) Association, the Ariadne Academy War Maidens Valkyrie Division. 

Background: Once a normal if academically below average student of Mahora Academy, her life unknowingly took a turn for the magical when Negi Springfield became her class's homeroom teacher (it was already strange). At first, her interaction with him was strictly limited to encouraging Nodoka to admit her feelings for him. However, she managed to divine the existence of magic after the field trip to Kyoto, and her world was changed forever.

During the Mahorafest Incident, she primarily played an advisory role, using her Artifact to access information, as well as counseling Negi through his doubts and fears about fighting Chao Lingshen (Personal Note: I'd be pissed, if things hadn't turned out so good).

After Mahorafest she, along with Nodoka, began to learn the basics of Magisterial Wizardry, of which they apparently possessed the ability to learn. 

The incident at the Megalomesembria City Gateport led to her appearance at the Academy City of Ariadne, whereupon she accidentally lost her memory. Confused and with no alternatives presenting themselves at the time, her intellectual curiosity moved her to enroll in the preparatory classes for the city's War Maiden brigades. At first as academically inept as she was in Mahora, her rise quickly became meteoric, culminating in her planning, executing and succeeding in a plan to deal with a rogue griffin-dragon that threatened her classmates. This incident gave rise to the first of what would soon be many Yue Farandole (as she was calling herself at the time) fan clubs (it is now considered a mark of status to be an early member of the fan club known as "Yue Maniacs". Curiously, Emily Sevensheep, Collette Farandole and Beatrix Monroe all possess membership cards with one-digit registration numbers).

In the end, she, like the rest of Ala Alba, was instrumental in the defeat of Kosmo Entelekhia. Things, however, did not settle down. She, also like the rest of Ala Alba, was drawn into the incident known as the 'Book Of Darkness and Yet Another Reason To Stay The Hell Away From Earth (Unadministered World #97)' case. She, Haruna, Yue, and their cute mute classmate Cassandra (see note: Agent: "Spoiler") faced off against the knight Vita during the Wolkenritter's attack on Mahora, and prevented her from taking Evangeline's Linker Core. She was also one of those who responded during the Invader mass-activation incident at the end of the 5th Holy Grail War in Fuyuki city.

After the finishing middle school in Mahora, she spent the break until high school registration completing her studies at Ariadne before being admitted, along with the other veterans of her security team from Ostia, into the Valkyries, the most prestigious War Maiden Battalion. She was later assigned as military liaison to Mahora Academy, allowing her to continue her studies there. 

Powers and Abilities:  Yue is a trained librarian, and thus skilled in rappelling, unarmed combat, small arms combat, knives, the Dewey Decimal System, library and wilderness survival, spelunking, book repair, finding the smutty books intentionally misplaced in the shelves by students trying to keep them all to themselves, locking, and trap identification and disarmament, among other skills. She is also a classically trained Mage, having learned in her few brief weeks at Ariadne Academy, as well as receiving weapons training, particularly in the use of the sword-lance weapon the Souken. 

Her elemental specialty is ice magic, and has recently asked to become, and grudgingly been admitted as, Evangeline's newest direct apprentice. A calculating fighter, Yue is able to near-instantly assess situations and conceive multiple possible end scenarios, and plan accordingly. Like Negi, she is highly intellectual in her combat tactics, relying on pre-prepared counter protocols, strategic use of information, and a willingness to self-sacrifice to achieve her objectives. The latter is why she is always teamed up with Nodoka and/or Haruna, to make sure she doesn't do anything pragmatically sound but suicidally stupid. 

She is also a fan of The Princess Bride and Monty Python, with all the quotes that implies.

My, but it's been a slow day. Rather than showing up shouting nonsense, however, I choose to respond to this with tale-telling. Please enjoy a short preview of Disturbing Routines.

"Excuse me," came the soft, Kyoto-accented voice from behind him. "Professor Akashi?"

Akashi Wataru sighed. The day had almost been finally over, too! But he painted on a patient expression and turned to look at the young woman who'd called out to him. And then blinked.

The very pale young woman with reddish-brown eyes and light hair was standing not too far away from him, dressed in a purple kimono. Was there some sort of festival going on that he hadn't heard about?

"Ah, yes, I'm him," he answered, then recognized her. "You're Fujino, aren't you? The Student Council President over at the mixed high school."

"That's so," she answered with a gentle dip of her head.

"Well. What can I do for you this evening?" he asked.

And she smiled then, and he suddenly realized that there were dark circles under her eyes, and that in them was a rather frightening light. "Why, you can die, of course," she said. There was quite suddenly a very long naginata in her left hand, and then her right hand came up to clutch it as well. "You can die, very, very slowly," she added.

"It's going to be another one of those days, isn't it?" Akashi answered.
